Everything in me is pointing to our last talks about not wanting to be such naysayers and how we were probably witches and we were just too drugged up and drunk to realize it. It's my anniversary and you're not here to just send me a simple happy anniversary buddy text. It doesn't make any sense and yet the last week has made it make all the sense in the world for me. And I hate that I feel like no one else feels this way. I know the meds are working and I am so thankful for that. I don't think I would've survived this. Instead. I have spent the last week freeing the grasshoppers. Anyone I see Chris in, I talk to. Even if it's for a second. I just stopped looking at the ground and started looking at people. I dropped the resting dick face. I dropped the attitude. The cynicism. The anger. The hatred. I have been walking around so angry at this world for so long. Chris hated seeing me upset let alone actually mad at someone. Because we'll, then it meant he was more than likely mad at them as well. With reason. I can be very unreasonable and unforgiving at times. Chris didn't walk around like some fu***ng Jesus archetype. He didn't. He was just kind. And he noticed when people were alone or even lonely in the group. He just knew. I always did too because that's how we met. He found me too. Alone. In a new school. Mad as hell. Getting fu**ed with. Because of him I found so many things in life I love. But the most important thing he gave me was his time, his love, his guidance and the title as one of his best friends. I'm grateful. But I have so much weighing me down. I can't be a shoulder right now. I am always a shoulder. Always. And this is the first time I can't even shrug it out for you. I'm sorry I'm focusing on myself but deep down EVERYONE knows I should be doing that. I have a week to let it out so my shoulders can get the strength. As I am going to finally lay my dude to rest with a eulogy.

I love you Chris. I'm sorry you don't get to see this me. I'm sorry I waited until a week before you laid down to get help. I wish you could physically see what the last week was like for me and my family. I know you did but I wish you could've just experienced it

🖤💙

Took Julian to Gonella's for the first time. This was a tradition we had on Fridays for a long time. Chris's Dad JVS would get Gonella's after work for all of us and have em ready when each of us got to their apartment. When I told Julian what we were doing he was like "so I'm standing in for Uncle Chris then?" And I said "oh man, nahhh you're you standing as you. Every relationship is unique to those in it. You could never replace Chris and he could never replace you. Friendship isn't supposed to be a weird transaction of connection. It's just two people who give a s**t eating big sandwiches kid."

I finally got the 18 layer. It's way too much. Just like we thought it would be.

RIP Chris.

Please remember where you come from. Don't let it slip away. Remind your elders too. Not just the next generation.

It's been a long time since my Mom has been here. It's been longer since I have.

We spent the day reconnecting to the neighborhood. I didn't even know my Mom grew up on Lane. I always figured Rathbone was the only part of the history, because it was where I was at playing with my cousins as a kid.

My GGPA Jose would hate what Chris Illitch has done to Detroit sports. But he would be so proud of my family. All of my cousins. All of his kids, and grandkids, and great grandkids and great great grandkids.

My GGMA Emma would absolutely love my wife and kids and be so proud of my Momma regardless of what she thinks. And so proud of the massive family she built by coming here.

This day meant the world to my Mom. But it really meant so much that I just, I get what my guy has shown me in the last week.

I get it now dude.

Time to do MY work. I am done doing the work for no paper while everyone takes checks.

I'm just gonna see where everything takes me.

Thanks dude

RIP Chris

RIP GGrandpa Jose and GGrandma Emma. Oh and uh, thanks for bringing that suitcase full of sensimilia. I always wondered where I got it from. 💚

Remember your family your own way. Make your own traditions. Be inspired by those who came before you. But be yourself. You're not them. But they are a part of you.

I love all my Villarreal family. I hope y'all know that. Message me for the plot map I'll send it to ya if ya don't know. They wanna see you too. And I apologize it took me so long to wake my part of this up. 🫂🙏

Have fun with this one. Wow.

RIP Chris Steffen

Damn. 6,000 of you.

I can't ever say I'm alone. Thank you for never letting my back touch the ground in 15 years. 🫂🖤👊

Please visit the website I am currently in the middle of building and launching through the most tragic moments of my life.

This one thing has never failed me. And has always shown me what I am supposed to do.

Thanks for seeing me for who I am. Not just a guy with a camera. Not just someone that can do something for you. Not someone you can use for free art. For just being there and giving me a place to show you how rad the kids in Detroit really are. 👊🫂🖤🤙🤙🤙

My dude. Blurry and happy. Just like my stoned eyes will always remember. I have no words today. Just so thankful for everything you showed me before you left, and everything that's come since you have gone. I'm gonna say my last goodbyes soon. Not worried about the date. Just so happy you meant this much to so many. You were never not loved by many every moment of your life kid.

This is the pic in my head when I close my eyes. This is who I see. My best friend.

RIP Chris Steffen

Listen. I am into signs. I have been driving for almost 30 years. I have never in my life seen one of these.

I told Jenny I was going with her. Then I changed my mind. Then I thought of my kids walking out of the house and me not being in the car. And right before she left I changed my mind back to I was going to get them. I have seen so many signs. You have no idea.

This is so nuts to me... I thought the exploding sunset was the sign. I understand coincidences but it's getting out of control. 😭😭😭

Happy Birthday Kent Jamieson thanks for still taking care of me. And I'm so glad we got to work together a few weeks ago. Thanks for always letting me come get in your way. Hope ya find some beef jerky that doesn't stink up the place like my garbage jerky. But also for being my favorite Canadian time.

🖤😂👊
